A host of accommodations

An affordable Malpais hostel may be a great way to hang with fellow travelers and to hold onto some change for the road, but why not get a smidgen of privacy (and your own bathroom) and book a Hotwire Hot Rate hotel instead? Even if you’re looking to grab a place at the last minute, you can get semi-truck-sized savings. In fact, you can enjoy modest savings versus booking a listed rate two weeks earlier, so locking down that 4-star hotel room at a 2-star price is no biggie.

  • Reviews: Make sure you’re the royalty of the road and check the Hotwire Hot Rate hotel reviews to find private primo places for less.
